“Honouring” the referendum should apply to not just to the outcome but what the official Leave campaign said

Things are different now the country’s being led by Cummings/Johnson
Lots of talk at moment about “honouring the Referendum”. Fair enough.
Those who espouse that seem to look to the result itself rather than the promises and assertions made my the official Leave campaign in the run up to the June 23rd 2016 vote.
It was harder to make this argument when TMay was PM for she had not been responsible for what Vote Leave said.
Since Johnson became PM and recruited Cummings as his lead aide then there should be less excuse for not following the statements that the campaign was making. They should be accountable not just for their actions now but for all that Vote Leave said during the campaign. This is what they were responsible for and what helped voters to make up their minds.
So any deal needs to be judged against their assertions at the time.
